Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

My situation is complicated at the moment, I've got an adapter plate for a 38mm wastegate but i'm starting to think the 38mm gate isn't going to be big enough. So im currently looking around at either another manifold to suit a bigger gate or mod my manifold...or bite the bullet and get the 38mm gate and take the risk.

The lower you want to run the boost the larger you want the wastegate to be. Judging on my mate's setup with the same turbo i will need a bigger gate.

I think the r32 is more lenient with a slight difference as that example was what Dan was running on his gts4 and it was confirmed by willal that this is ok

It still will eventually cause problem with 32's but not as quickly as 33's and 34's as they run a mechanical 10% preload all the time (that is why you can't just pull a fuse in the later models). with the 32 it will still cause the clutches to burn out but the wearing will only occur when the ATESSA is activated, hence why it won't happen as quickly as the later models.

I was watching this thing lastnight on Animal Planet about "Demonic Apes". God it was interesting. This place called Gombi or something where all these Chimpanzee's live, they actually eat more meat than fruit and veg. And there was the leader "Frodo" who was the most violent out of all of them and he actually abducted a baby and mutilated it, tore its skin off its face and all this.

There were scientists saying that he has a common link between him and us, calling it the demonic male syndrome. Where they think that fighting and murder is okay.

They were also showing Frodo attacking other Chimps and they said that he was actually enjoying it because he knew he was inflicting pain on the other chimp.

It was very interesting to watch. Just shows how much we think we know about things, but in reality, we're totally in the dark about it.

+1

And the clutches aren't cheap to buy or fit.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
